Eighteen Wheels and a Dozen Roses Songtext
Charlie′s got a gold watch
Don't seem like a whole lot
After thirty years of drivin′
Up and down the interstate
But Charlie's had a good life
And Charlie's got a good wife
And after tonight she′ll no longer
Be countin′ the days
Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses
Ten more miles on his four day run
A few more songs from the all night radio
Then he'll spend the rest of his life
With the one that he loves
They′ll buy a Winnebago
Set out to find America
They'll do a lot of catchin′ up
A little at a time
With pieces of the old dream
They're gonna light the old flame
Doin′ what they please
Leavin' every other reason behind
Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses
Ten more miles on his four day run
A few more songs from the all night radio
Then he'll spend the rest of his life
With the one that he loves
Don't seem like a whole lot
After thirty years of drivin′
Up and down the interstate
But Charlie's had a good life
And Charlie's got a good wife
And after tonight she′ll no longer
Be countin′ the days
Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses
Ten more miles on his four day run
A few more songs from the all night radio
Then he'll spend the rest of his life
With the one that he loves
They′ll buy a Winnebago
Set out to find America
They'll do a lot of catchin′ up
A little at a time
With pieces of the old dream
They're gonna light the old flame
Doin′ what they please
Leavin' every other reason behind
Eighteen wheels and a dozen roses
Ten more miles on his four day run
A few more songs from the all night radio
Then he'll spend the rest of his life
With the one that he loves
